I agree... the government's plan (as usual) misses the mark and probably won't solve the problem. But the reason the government is getting involved is precisely because parental controls (if any) that were delivered by the platforms were too hidden, too complicated, and had to be set for every app or website instead of once on the device and have that enforced on everything.

Nope.
That is the superficial reason that government is getting involved.
If you want the real reason, I'll provide a hint: it aligns with the underlying goal of DOGE.
